Da Ming started to ascend the throne

"Oh, please forgive me, my father, I see that many people are suffering, and some people can't afford sea salt at all, so they decide to give all the poor people free of charge.

I don't want to see the people rebelling because they can't fill their stomachs. As the princess of Ming Dynasty, I feel that I have this obligation. Besides, the father used more than 500 million yuan to save the people, right? "

Zhu Weixi's decision surprised Zhu Youjian, and immediately gave Weixi a big praise:

"Haha, well done. You are worthy of my Zhu Youjian's daughter. She has done a good job. If all my children can be like you, Daming will surely last forever."

Chapter 349

Zhu Youjian is just a time traveler, it is impossible to be as rigid as Chongzhen, and he is like our modern father to the three children

In fact, he also has paternal love and appreciation for the three little beauties.

The four father and daughter chatted happily together, and Zhu Youjian even told them some inspirational fairy tales.

At first, Ziwei was a little restrained, but she gradually let go.

The three little beauties were all sticking to Zhu Youjian's side, and Wei Xi hugged his father's neck from behind.

And Jianwen and Ziweihe hugged their father's arm, and the family was very happy and happy together.

At this time the little eunuch Er Xi came in and reported:

"Your Majesty, Fan Jingwen, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, please see me."

"call"

Zhu Youjian only said one word, and then smiled at the three girls:

"Someone is here, you go back first, the emperor will accompany you to dinner tonight!"

"Well, my son is leaving!"

Hearing that a minister came to see the father, the three beauties nodded sensiblely, and left Qianqing Palace hand in hand.Mobile terminal../

When I was going out, I happened to meet Fan Jingwen. Fan Jingwen didn't expect the princess to be there, so he hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"See Her Royal Highness!"

It was the first time for Jianwen and Ziwei to encounter this kind of situation, and they didn't know what was wrong for a while.

Wei Wei smiled slightly:

"Your Majesty Fan, you're welcome, Father is waiting for you, go in quickly!"

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

Thanking the princess, Fan Jingwen stepped into the Qianqing Palace.

Seeing Zhu Youjian hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"Weichen see Your Majesty."

"Exemption, peace, and a seat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

When Fan Jingwen was seated, Zhu Youjian said with a smile:

"What's the matter with Aiqing seeing me at this time?"

Fan Jinwen hurriedly cupped his hands:

"Your Majesty, envoys from five vassal states have paid tribute, and one of them has paid tribute to divine beasts. Please tell us how to repay the vassal state now?"

"Five vassal states came to pay tribute? Isn't there dozens of them?"

Zhu Youjian's face suddenly changed. He remembered that in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, there seemed to be more than 100 vassal states, and then there were still twenty or thirty, and now there are five?

Seeing the great change in the emperor's face, Fan Jingwen hurriedly stood up and replied:

"Your Majesty, there were indeed many vassal states paying tribute in the past, and North Korea paid the most tribute, but now North Korea has become a province of Ming Dynasty, and it has been exempted from tax for three years, so of course there is no need to pay tribute.

Ryukyu, which used to pay tribute, is now actually controlled by the Satsuma clan of the Wa Kingdom. They pay tribute at both ends. Maybe Wa Kingdom sees the continuous civil strife in Ming Dynasty and now does not allow Ryukyu to pay tribute.

In addition, the Southeast Asian countries have been controlled by the Red Maoyi and Franji people, and they no longer pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty...

Your Majesty, to be honest, this is fine, they don't pay tribute, and Daming can save a lot of expenses. "

What Fan Jingwen said actually made sense. You must know that in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, in order to show the demeanor of a great power, the property that Ming gave back to the envoys of the vassal state far exceeded their tribute.

Some countries can exchange a wild animal as a tribute from Daming for precious silk jewelry.

As a result, those vassal states rushed to pay tribute, and they also brought a large number of followers.

Daming wanted to reward these people. In order to get a large reward, even Nurhachi often brought many people to pay tribute.

At that time, their tribute had changed, and they just wanted to get more generous feedback from Daming.

There are even countries that do not hesitate to fight in order to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. This is the Wa Kingdom in the Warring States Period.

Our neighbors to the east have coveted us for a long time from the beginning to the end.

When China was strong, they tried to take advantage of us.

When China's national power declined, they showed their wolfish ambitions.

During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, two groups of Wa people fought to pay tribute to China, which made people laugh out loud.

At that time, the king of the Ming Dynasty believed that the heavenly dynasty was rich in the whole world, and the four barbarians were all uncivilized peoples who drank blood and drank blood.

Claiming to be a vassal to Huaxia and dedicating gifts to Huaxia Shangguo, Huaxia doesn't have to take advantage of them, let alone make money with it.

On the contrary, there are more gifts, as long as they can be obedient and serve China as their lineage.

This idea of ​​wanting face and not liking has existed since the Han Dynasty. It reached its peak in the Sui Dynasty during Yang Jian, but it continued until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

At that time, the Wa Kingdom was in the era of separatist rule by the princes, and the power of the generals declined, and various powerful families took control of the territory one after another.

However, the Ming Dynasty implemented a sea ban and did not do business with foreigners casually.

So paying tribute to the Ming Dynasty in exchange for rewards has become a way of trade between Japan and China, and this way does not lose money.

At that time, the Ouchi clan of the Wa Kingdom sent Zongshe Kendao and the Hosokawa clan sent Rui Zuo to pay tribute to Daming respectively.

To pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, one must hold a certificate of credence, which was called "Kanhe" at the time, to prove that it was not a cat or a dog, but a legitimate government.

At that time, the Ouchi clan held the "Kanhe", so logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with the Xichuan clan to pay tribute this time.
